A strong contingent of young American players heads up a talented international field set to play in the inaugural Party Rock Open being hosted by Redfoo from the hit music group LMFAO Sept. 23-30 at Darling Tennis Center.

Fresh off the US Open where he was a guest in Victoria Azarenka's box for the ladies' final, Redfoo and the Party Rock Open will welcome a slew of rising American talent, including teenager Lauren Davis, NCAA Champion Nicole Gibbs, and Pan-Am Games Gold Medalist Irina Falconi.

The women's USTA Pro Circuit tournament will kick off with singles qualifying on Sunday, Sept. 23, where Redfoo plans to participate in free kids' tennis clinics as part Cox Kids' Day from noon to 3 p.m.

Romania's Edina Gallovits-Hall is the highest ranked played and will likely be top-seeded coming in at No. 114 in the world. She is followed by Portugal's Michelle Larcher De Brito (No. 120 in the world) and Davis who is currently No. 129. Australia's Anastasia Rodionova (No. 130), Falconi (No. 147), and fellow American Alison Riske (No. 150) will all be seeded. Gallovits-Hall and Rodionova both reached the second round of the U.S. Open.

Former USC All-American Maria Sanchez, who has climbed over 500 spots in the world rankings (from 687 to 186) in her rookie season on tour in 2012, will also be featured.

Another notable entry in the main draw is Elena Bovina from Russia. The former WTA World No. 14 ranked player was also a 2002 US Open quarterfinalist

Gibbs, who captured the NCAA women's singles title in June, is joined by her Stanford teammate, Mallory Burdette. Burdette reached the third round of this year's U.S. Open as a wild card.

"We are excited about this year's player field," tournament co-director Jordan Butler said. "There are a number of up-and-coming players who are going to have bright careers, and many who have already been ranked inside the top 100, so it should be interesting. The field is wide open and it's a big opportunity for someone to break through."

Now in its fourth year, the tournament has acted as a stepping stone for some of the top talent in women's professional tennis. Several players who have competed in Las Vegas since the event was founded in 2009 now find themselves amongst the world's best, such as current Top 25 player and U.S. Olympian Varvara Lepchenko, the 2010 champion.
